Unpacking & Installing the L8i
Your new Wisdom Audio Insight Series L8i in-wall speaker is a substantial piece
of equipment, which is shipped fully assembled. Please exercise caution when
unpacking your L8i to ensure that you do not strain yourself from its (perhaps
unexpected) weight.
Caution! Do not attempt to lift your L8i while bending or twisting from the
waist. Use your legs for lifting, not your back.
Always stand as straight as possible and keep the L8i close to your
body to reduce strain on your back.
Simple installation instructions
1. Use the included cardboard template to trace the outline of the
hole for the speaker and carefully cut to the line.
2. Carefully removed the magnetic grille, tipping it off from one side
to the other (not from one end to the other), so as to avoid damag-
ing the grille. Set it aside, laying it flat.
3. Unscrew and remove the speaker module itself (baffle plate, driv-
ers, crossover) from the UniGrip™ mounting system and carefully
set it aside.
4. Remove one long clamping rail from the Uni-Grip™ mounting
system, and loosen the other side. Angle the Uni-Grip into the
cutout so the remaining clamping rail is sandwiching the wall, and
snug it down lightly. Insert the removed clamping rail through the
wall opening, and reattach it to the Uni-Grip. Check everything
for plumb, and snug both rails down.
5. Push any insulation in the wall to the side. If there is no insula-
tion in the wall, loosely fill the stud bay with insulation to reduce
cavity resonances and improve performance.
6. Using assistance to hold the speaker away from the wall, connect
the speaker cable to the + and – connectors on the rear of the
speaker, paying attention to proper polarity.
7. Screw the speaker module into the Uni-Grip frame.
8. Place the grille on the front of the speaker, registering it around
the edges of the baffle. It is held magnetically and will gently snap
into place.
Maximum wall thickness
The Uni-Grip system on the L8i can handle wall thicknesses of up to 1.25” (1

⁄

”
or 3.175cm). If you are planning a double-wall construction, you may use two

” layers. You may also consider using MDO (medium density overlay) ply-
wood, which is quite strong and has a smooth paper surface like gypsum board.
